This captivating sculpture depicts a solitary boy standing on snowshoes atop a high hill. His head is lifted high, and he gazes into the sky, as if searching for his path among the stars or seeking answers from the universe.

 

The boy's hands clutch a traditional Nenets lasso for catching reindeer. He stands on the hill to bring himself closer to the heavens. His face, like a mask, conveys a sense of calm and hope, as if he trusts that the universe will not abandon him on his journey.

 

The sculpture embodies the search for purpose and the hope for a brighter future. It conveys a sense of solitude and vulnerability, but also of the boy's strength and determination.
